Stacy McAnulty wants 100 dogs but hasn't been able to convince her family—yet! She is the author of more than 30 books for children, including the picture book Earth! My First 4.54 Billion Years and the middle-grade novel The Miscalculations of Lightning Girl. McAnulty lives in North Carolina with her family and as many pups as she can sneak into the house. The count is currently three.

Claire Keane studied graphic design at École Supérieure d'Arts Graphiques in Paris, France, where she lived for eight years until she moved to Los Angeles to work at Walt Disney Animation Studios. During her ten-year tenure there, she designed for Tangled, Frozen, Enchanted, and other films. Now she is the author and illustrator of many books for children, including Little Wonder, Love Is, and Why?

After meeting a dog during a walk, a little girl declares that she wants one hundred dogs, but as her parents point out all the difficulties, she gradually reduces the number--until she gets the one dog she really wants.
